This is a cross-national project to study government offices to improve the status of women and promote sex-based equality. Five US scholars, the PIs in this award, will work with approximately 30 researchers from 11 other countries in a project that has been underway since 1995 to study law making processes pertaining to abortion, prostitution, job training and democratic representation of women, as well as the status of women's concerns in immigration, economic restructuring and welfare reform. Using the comparative method of political research, three general hypotheses will be examined in this research project (1) whether or not the success of women's movements in achieving their goals is due to intervention by women's policy offices inside the government; (2) whether or not women's movement success or women's policy office effectiveness depends on the resources of the movement and an open policy environment or both; (3) whether or not women's movements can be as successful without intervention by policy offices. The PIs have established a detailed set of operational definitions and procedures that will guide the data collection by each researcher. This plan is designed to ensure the comparability of the findings and thus enhance the project's potential contribution to empirically tested theory of institutional effectiveness and social movement impact.

这是一个跨国项目，旨在研究政府部门如何提高妇女地位和促进基于性别的平等。 五名美国学者，即该奖项的PI，将与来自其他11个国家的大约30名研究人员合作，开展一个自1995年以来一直在进行的项目，研究与堕胎、卖淫、职业培训和妇女民主代表权有关的法律制定过程，以及妇女在移民、经济结构调整和福利改革中的地位。本研究将运用政治研究的比较方法，对三个一般性假设进行检验：（1）妇女运动在实现其目标方面的成功是否归功于政府内部妇女政策办公室的干预;（2）妇女运动的成功或妇女政策办公室的有效性是否取决于运动的资源和开放的政策环境，或两者兼而有之;（3）妇女运动在没有政策局干预的情况下能否同样成功。主要研究者制定了一套详细的操作定义和程序，将指导每个研究人员收集数据。该计划旨在确保调查结果的可比性，从而加强该项目对经经验检验的机构效力和社会运动影响理论的潜在贡献。
